Detailed account of india between 1950-2007I liked the way Ramachandra Guha has chronicled the development of India right since independence. Its a beautiful narrative and the book is a very detailed account of India since independence. Ramchandra guha is a Nehruvian. He writes equally about Hinduism but as the book proceeds he continues more to give it a bashing like a secularist. The book is very long. Guha has done extensive research in order to write this book. The book is one of the most comprehensive one and traces a history and goes up to 2007.I must say its a must read for people interested in history. He does give his own pers… (Expand)

Esp. recommended for the young!As a student, I remember how drab and detached histrory lessons were. Moreover, if one did not pursue history/political science in class XI and XII, one was deprived of any knowledge or insight into the happenings of this great nation post-Independence. To all those young people who, like me, have a thirst for knowing about the events, thoughts and ideas that have shaped modern India but feel that they have to grudgingly satisfy themselves with tid-bits of information in newspapers, Tv and internet, "India after Gandhi" is a book not to be missed.

Not for UPSC. But definitely good read for today's youth on the turmoil called Independent India.As the author himself notes, India is an experiment in democracy. That so since nobody has embarked on such an notion of a nation without a common feeling of nation-state like Europe with so many diversities. But yet we are still together and united. The turmoils and challenges after independence has been described in great detail and it is a wonderful read.

Best book about India's modern historyIndia After Gandhi: The History of the World's Largest Democracy is one of the best non-fiction books I have ever read. As the name suggests, this book deals with Indian history after 1947 and history assumes the form a of a story in this book. It is not everyday that you want a voluminous history book to never end. I wonder why Indian history post independence is not taught in schools. In my opinion, this book is a must read for anyone wishing to know about India's modern and contemporary history.

Finally authentic history writing has arrived in IndiaSince ages, India has been quite bad in recording her history. Most of our ancient history, as we read in books, is not authentic, because it's not based on any recorded history. It's mainly based on fragments from scriptures or other religious books, whose historicity and authenticity can't be vouched for. A good example is the Mahabharata, which is believed to be written by Ganesha, as narrated by Vyasa. No one knows correctly who the original author was or how this was written where as there's not much ambiguity about the authorship of Homer. The same is true for modern or medieval history.… (Expand)

A marvellous launchpad for a political noviceI have no words to thank this wonderful book which has set me off on a learning spiral. I have been looking for a book like this to clear the basics in order to make sense of daily political news. This is a perfect book to give you a perfect launchpad of political history of independent india and will definitely make you an interesting reader to follow-up and understand ongoing political developments. I humbly request Mr.Guha to please write a continuation of this book to cover the political developments till 2010.

Are there such things as "guy books" and "girl books"?
My oldest sister has two kids - a boy and a girl, the perfect pigeon pair, and being the nosy bookworm auntie that I am, I regularly browse through their bookshelves to supervise their reading material.
I find it disheartening because, inevitably, I'll get kinda pissed off that my niece reads pink fairy books full of fluffy tales about girls who are helpful and sweet and kind-hearted, whereas my nephew gets to read about dinosaurs and dragons and brave boys who slay them.
What's more, this sort of pink-and-blue divide when it comes to reading doesn't stop when we leave the land of recess and school uniforms. No, it carries over into adulthood, like some kind of neverending hangover.
Young-adult author Maureen Johnson, writing for The Huffington Post, rants in her column about how "female fiction" is perceived 95 per cent of the time as being "trashy", labelled with pejorative terms like "light", "fluffy", "breezy" and "beach read". She goes on to say that she spent most of her college career taking entire papers that revolved around male writers, and makes the strong case that "for much of history, women read the works of men".
Whereas I did read some excellent women writers when I was at uni, I was from a different generation than her and I have to admit, even I still commit the same crimes when I talk about certain genres of books. But I am going to consciously try to quit that s**t from now on.
The most interesting section of Maureen's piece was when she talked about her Twitter experiment, where she challenged her followers to something called "Coverflip". Essentially, readers had to take a book's cover and redesign it in such a way that it was clearly aimed at one gender or another. You can check out the covers here. Most of them are cleverly done, and it makes you realise how insidious gender marketing can be.
For example, take the cover of a classic tale like Jack Kerouac's On The Road (original cover below):
And see how with a few tweaks, you can turn what's been marketed as the grown-up version of a boy's own adventure story into what looks like a Thelma and Louise-like romp through the Dixie heartland of America.
I particularly agree with what Maureen said about how men are almost always perceived to write about "Big Things That Mattered". I am a fan of many wonderful female authors who are respected within the world of creative writing despite their gender, but that is the key - despite.
Women like Margaret Atwood, Maya Angelou, Anais Nin, Virginia Woolf, J.K. Rowling, Sylvia Plath, Isabel Allende, Toni Morrison, Arundhati Roy and many, many others may be accorded literary merit and the respect of their peers and readers, but there is still the uneasy sense that there are those who would perceive that they write about female issues, by virtue of being a woman.
Take Allende, for example, and the literary criticism hefted her way that she is "killing [Gabriel] Garcia Marquez a little more each day the same way Michael Jackson's sisters are killing Michael Jackson". While I have deep respect for Garcia Marquez's early works, he is by no means a gatekeeper for magical realism in novels. He's written absolute tosh too, like the self-indulgent Memories of My Melancholy Whores.
I am by no means saying that the gender bias doesn't also run the other way for male authors, but it's to a far lesser extent, I think. By and large, even when they're writing self-pitying twaddle like Joseph Anton, Salman Rushdie's infamous recent memoir, they're still perceived as having something important to say. I mean, fer gawd's sake, Rushdie spent at least a third of the book whining about the women in his life, and how hard done by he has been by them.
What do you think about gender marketing when it comes to books?

We are going to be at two really awesome events. First is the AT&T Mobile Hackathon in Seattle April 13-14. Tiggzi app builder is really an amazing tool to use during hackathons simply because it allows to build HTML5 and PhoneGap mobile apps super fast, connected to any REST API. Anyone who attends the hackathon in Seattle and wants to use Tiggzi (or just wants to sign up) will get 4 months free Pro account (that's $200 value).
The second is Mobile Monday: Multi-platform Build Tools event on Monday, April 16 at Verizon offices in San Francisco. There are going to be 4 great presentations:
- PhoneGap (Adobe)
- Tiggzi Mobile App Builder
- Marmalade
- Trigger.io

Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
"Luck don't change, love," observes Sam Pickles to his daughter Rose. "It moves." Considerations of fate and love underlie Winton's ( Shallows ) wry novel, set in Western Australia, about two families thrown together in the years following WW II. Sam Pickles earns a modest living mining guano for nitrate until he loses his hand in an accident. Fortunately, the family inherits a rambling old house--the Cloudstreet of the title--in which they can live, although they still lack cash. The dilemma is resolved with the sudden arrival of the rigid, God-fearing Lamb family, whom the rather libertine Pickles take in as boarders. Following the quirky, deeply etched members of these families--"flamin whackos," in Quick Lamb's description--as they forge bonds and undergo travails, Winton explores the haphazard nature of human existence with a quietly focused ferocity. Featuring lyrical passages and rapid-fire, minimally punctuated dialogue, this satiric, affectionate family saga is tragic and hilarious--and often both at once. Winton shows himself a worthy successor to his countryman Martin Boyd, who portrayed the Anglo-Australian society of previous generations.

From Library Journal
Australian Winton's fifth novel is chock-full, depicting birth, death, resurrection, marriage, miscarriage, gambling, drunkenness, adultery, anorexia, depression, love, and joy. From 1944 to 1964, the Pickles and Lamb families share a large house in a suburb of Perth on the wrong side of the tracks. The Pickles own the house and are slothful, he a gambler with long streaks of bad luck, she often drunk and adulterous. The tenant Lambs are hard-working. After the latter open a successful grocery on the first floor of the house, the families' lives become intertwined, and home and hearth become an anchor. World War II, Australian politics, the Cuban missle crisis, and Kennedy's assassination take a backseat to their trials and final joy. Biblical imagery, a talking pig, a house that cracks its knuckles, a son who glows in the dark, and a mysterious black "guardian angel" add spice to a book whose language resonates and charms. Highly recommended for most fiction collections. Previewed in Prepub Alert, LJ 1/92.

Heady words, and I snapped at the bait, intrigued by the raving reviews of the readers. (Be careful not to read all of them, as one gives away the entire ending in one sentence).
I was not disappointed. I was completely captivated by this story in a way I have never been by any other. The originality, teasing slang and the insight into australian post-world war II was a hearty combination that cadenced into one of the most fascinating books I have ever read.
This book went with me everywhere. I discussed it with many and especially enjoyed lingering over certain sentences ripe with slang. It was probably one of the most delightful aspects of reading this book; the freshness and foreigness to me as an American reading the saucy expressions of Australians. The humor is hilarious, and there was a smile for nearly every page I read and also moments that made your heart melt. At this very moment, there are friends of mine working in medicine (hospital) still trying to figure out what Tim Winton meant by "the smell of nugget in the webbing."
Aside from the hilarity, the novel is about two families that by chance come together to live in the same large home. The Pickles Family inherits a large home from a relative that dies suddenly and unexpectantly. Thanks to this relative (Uncle Joel) and his wise forethought, he bars his brother, Sam from selling the home for 20 years. Joel's motivation is a premeditated attempt to protect the wife and children of Sam and Sam's gambling at the race tracks, not to mention the unfortunate work related amputation of his fingers on one hand that renders him nearly unemployable. Since things are pretty grim anyway (they are living above the bar that Joel owns and "working" off the rent,) Sam's drunken wife Dolly, and his children move on up to Cloudstreet and the mansion in the offering.
Sam, ever so shifty, immediately, and without prior consultation with the rest of his family, rents out one half of the house to the Lamb family. The Lambs are the absolute opposite of the Pickles. Religious, and with their own family sorrows, they pack in and set up a grocery store in their one half of the lower story to make a living.
The Lambs arrive after suffering through the near drowning of their most beloved son, Fish. (note the irony.)
Fish, retarded and prone to sensing spirits in the house and in and of himself becomes essential to the story and the telling. Revolving around this poor boy are the steel strength-heart soft mother, Oriel, and father Lester, a hen-pecked, sweet tempered,entertaining pa. Son "Quick" is the angst-ridden brother who feels responsible for Fish's accident and grows up fighting the evils around him. The other sisters round out this lively family.
Many characters and sub-plots keep this book a page turner that will entertain and move you. I look forward to reading the rest of his novels.
PS : there is a study guide for those that want to enhance the novel. See Amazon.com under author Tim Winton.
The character development is flawless and you come to care about each one of them whether you like them or not.
This was the first work by Winton that I've read and the beginning was a little rough going (there are no quotation marks) but by the end of chapter 1 I was wondering why quotation marks were ever invented. In Winton's skillful hands they are totally unnecessary.
I truly did not want this book to end. I, too, wanted to stay on Cloudstreet.

Hello charlie, long time no talk.... I was just browsing around and decided to leave you this message.... I was wondering what are your thoughts on the Neymar transfer deal and how do you feel he is doing at Barcelona?
I feel that the deal was bound to happen, however I'm very happy of how it happened(little money for Santos, lots of money to his father's company) I think he is doing better than I though he would do in such amount of time. He is adapting quickly. Anyways.... Have a nice weekend. Talk to you soon.
Ps, if you are on twitter, my name there is @DaniloSFCBR, take care

As the new year commences, resolve to avoid the primary culprit of fantasy hoops mediocrity that seeps into leagues this time of year: complacency.
Now that the luster of a new season has dimmed and the novelty of your team has worn off, many fantasy owners stop paying their teams the daily attention needed to ensure the best chance of victory. This applies to daily roster moves and especially waiver-wire acquisitions. It's easy to look at your starting roster and be lazy about cultivating the best bench possible, but boosting that team depth is the best way to maximize your team's overall value and prospects of winning down the stretch.
Analyze the players with the lowest value on your team and compare them directly to the options available on the waiver wire. Even if you haven't needed to change up your bench for quite some time, making sure the 13th player on your roster is the best 13th player possible helps in a variety of ways. With trades, it allows you to ship off more players than you receive and compensate for the loss of depth effectively. It also safeguards against injuries, provides options if you're attempting to make up ground in a specific category and allows high-upside players to incubate until their opportunity comes.
As such, here are some widely available players who could be better options than the worst player on your team:
John Salmons, SG/SF, Sacramento Kings (19.1 percent owned): It would have been difficult for Salmons not to improve upon the disaster that was his 2011-12 season, when he posted a career-low 3-point percentage and the worst per-minute numbers he has had since he broke out for the Kings in 2006-2007. But he has stepped in and performed admirably in Tyreke Evans' absence, scoring in double figures in four of the past six games. He is averaging 13.9 points on 51.4 percent shooting from the floor and 82.4 percent from the stripe with 4.7 assists, 1.6 3-pointers and 1.0 steals per game over the past 15 days. He has decreased his attempts on long 2-pointers and increased his attempts at the rim, which are positive signs in the field goal percentage department. Evans is expected to return sometime during the Kings' next homestand, but there's enough ambiguity there and overall instability surrounding this team that it's worth it to ride Salmons while he's hot.
Mike Dunleavy, SG/SF, Milwaukee Bucks (15.4 percent owned): Dunleavy has shined recently in a bench role for the Bucks after missing six games because of a knee injury, averaging 15.8 points and 2.8 3-pointers per game over his past four contests. He has become more of a catch-and-shoot option than he was a few years ago, when he was one of the better all-around offensive options in the game, but he is still a major threat from beyond the arc, averaging 1.8 3s per game on 41 percent shooting from downtown. Dunleavy should continue to see significant minutes, as his +8.1 plus/minus is the best on his team, according to 82games.com, and should remain an excellent source of 3s as a primary scoring option off the bench for the Bucks.
Will Bynum, PG, Detroit Pistons (8 percent owned): Bynum has displayed flashes of brilliance in the past, such as November 2009, when he averaged 15 points, 4.5 assists and 1.0 steals per game in 14 contests while playing almost 30 minutes per night. But the Detroit backcourt has been bogged down by Rodney Stuckey and now-former Pistons Ben Gordon and Richard Hamilton, so he never has gotten the consistent run he seemingly deserves, not to mention he struggled with injury and personal problems last season. But he has been scorching of late with Stuckey sidelined, averaging 19.8 points, 5.8 assists and 2.0 3s per game over his past four games. Stuckey should be back soon, but this stretch could earn Bynum more playing time, as he is capable of playing alongside Stuckey and Brandon Knight. Don't expect the 20-plus scoring nights to continue with regularity, but he is capable of providing modest points, assists and 3s as a spark plug off the bench.
Charlie Villanueva, SF/PF, Pistons (1 percent owned): Back in the day, I was enthralled with Villanueva's fantasy potential, because as a talented stretch power forward who shoots 3s, he has multicategory glory written all over him. Unfortunately, he fell hopelessly in love with the long ball and forgot there are other aspects to basketball, resulting in a considerable decline in minutes in each of the past three seasons. This was also spurred by poor conditioning and ankle problems, both of which are improved this season, as exhibited by his sparkling 19.87 player efficiency rating. He is still enamored with the trey, but he is getting enough playing time and draining them at an exorbitant enough rate that he is worth a flier as a 3-point specialist from the power forward position. Villanueva is averaging 14.2 points, 3.4 3s, 1.0 steals and 0.6 blocks per game in his past five contests, and if he continues earning minutes in the mid-20s, he'll be an unexpected (given his position) source of 3-pointers.
Garrett Temple, SG, Washington Wizards (1 percent owned): Boasting impressive size and versatility for a guard, Temple has bounced around the league but posted enticing per-minute statistics in his limited time, averaging 0.4 3s, 0.5 steals and 0.3 blocks in 12.6 minutes per game for his career. He averaged 1.2 3s, 1.7 steals and 0.7 blocks per game as a senior at LSU and has developed his limited offensive game a bit, but he excels most on the defensive end. He is worth deep-league consideration if you need a glue-type player who has some value in multiple categories, at least until John Wall returns.
Hakim Warrick, PF, Charlotte Bobcats (0.7 percent owned): This mediocre journeyman with solid scoring ability is doing what he does when given more playing time: provide above average scoring numbers and below average everything else on a per-minute basis. Warrick is not exciting unless you need scoring in a deep league, but he has four seasons of averaging double digits in points per game under his belt and has at least 12 points in three of the past four contests with Byron Mullens sidelined. He should provide 10-12 points with 4-5 boards per game with this increased playing time.
Jared Sullinger, PF, Boston Celtics (0.6 percent owned): The primary question surrounding Sullinger on draft day was the health of his back, not his ability to be productive. Well, he has been healthy, and relatively productive, averaging 8.8 points on 57.1 percent shooting with 6.2 rebounds and 0.8 steals per game in his past five contests. It took until the end of November for him to notch his third double-digit scoring effort, and now he has done it in three of his past five games as he's becoming an increasingly important part of the Celtics' bench rotation. Right now, his rebounding is his best trait; his 13.8 rebound rate per 48 minutes ranks 24th in the league, ahead of guys like Greg Monroe and Blake Griffin. His ceiling in relatively low, as his subpar athleticism will make it difficult for him to dominate in any category, but he should eventually score efficiently, rebound and provide just enough steals and blocks to be consistently fantasy worthy if his health holds up.
Terrence Ross, SG, Toronto Raptors (0.5 percent owned): The Raptors surprised many by drafting Ross eighth overall, but he has the type of game that translates nicely at the NBA level and we're starting to get glimpses of his potential. He posted 26 points with six 3s, five rebounds and two steals Wednesday night and is averaging 14 points with 2.8 3s and 1.2 steals in his past five contests. He is raw, but he has ample upside and is capable of contributing in points and 3s for a team that is currently starting Mickael Pietrus at the 2. Don't be surprised if that changes shortly, as Ross is proving to be ready to have an impact at this level.
Shelvin Mack, PG, Wizards (0.4 percent owned): Mack's defense will earn him enough court time to warrant a deep-league pickup if you're desperate for assists, as he battles fellow no-name defensive hustler Temple for run. Neither is worth a spot in standard leagues, but Mack is worth grabbing if you want assists in deep formats, and Temple is if you want a little of everything. Mack is averaging five assists per game in his past three games, and like Temple, he'll have some value until Wall returns.
John Jenkins, SG, Atlanta Hawks (0 percent owned): This is my super-deep special of the week. Widely regarded as the best shooter in the 2012 NBA draft, Jenkins looks to do one thing when given playing time: drain from long range. He averaged 3.8 3s per game at Vanderbilt last season, and although he is poor at creating his own shot, he thrives in catch-and-shoot situations. He is proving that his skill translates to the NBA 3-point line, as he is nailing 47.6 percent of his 3-point attempts and averaging 0.7 3s in just 8.2 minutes per game. He is averaging 10.7 points and 1.7 3s in 20 minutes per game in his past three contests with Anthony Morrow sidelined, and if he is capable of sustaining increased playing time and supplants Morrow as the team's 3-point specialist, he'll be a legitimate one-category wonder.

The company struggled for years after the death of its famous founder, Dave Thomas, in 2002, but finally looks to be finding its way.
In the past 18 months, Wendy's (ticker: WEN) has gone back to its roots as a high-quality burger maker, introducing new menu items and more focused marketing, and rolling out a dramatic remodeling of its stores. Even a new logo will be unveiled in March.
Wendy's has been revamping its menu, marketing, and stores. Improved results could boost its shares by 40%. Above, a restaurant in Columbus, Ohio. Jay LaPrete/Bloomberg News
The results are notable, with same-store sales rising for six of the past seven quarters. They were up 4.9% in the past two years.
Investors have bid up Wendy's shares by 20% from an October low, but a recent price of $5.03 puts the stock right back where it traded around the start of the year. Don't expect it to stay there, however, as the company begins to churn out appetizing results.

The discount is likely to narrow as Wendy's transformation unfolds, leading to a 40% jump in the stock price.
At 10 times 2014 estimated Ebitda, Wendy's would be worth $7.20. The stock yields 3.2%.
Founded 44 years ago by Thomas, Columbus, Ohio-based Wendy's has 6,560 stores, with 78% franchised and the rest company-owned. Almost 90% of the stores are in the U.S., with the greatest concentrations in Florida, Ohio, Texas, and Georgia.
In 2008, Wendy's was acquired for $2.4 billion by Triarc, a holding company controlled by activist investor Nelson Peltz. He merged it with Arby's and renamed it Wendy's/Arby's. Arby's was sold to a private-equity group in 2011, enabling management to focus on Wendy's.
The current CEO, Emil Brolick, joined Wendy's in September 2011 and knows it well, having worked closely with Thomas in the 1990s before leaving for Yum! Brands. Brolick turned around Yum's Taco Bell unit, and most recently served as chief operating officer of Yum. Last April he hired Craig Bahner, a Procter & Gamble PG -0.6177156177156177% Procter & Gamble Co.

Wendy's earned $64 million, or 16 cents a share, last year, on revenue of $2.5 billion. This year analysts expect earnings to rise to 18 cents, on a 4% rise in sales.
WENDY'S HAS MADE significant changes to its menu and marketing plan. Dubbed "A Cut Above," the latter emphasizes the brand's high-quality burgers and fresh ingredients. Since introducing its Dave's Hot 'N Juicy cheeseburgers in September 2011, the company has followed up with a slew of new premium products, including the Bacon Portabella Melt, Mozzarella Chicken Supreme, Spicy Guacamole Chicken Club, and the Berry Almond Chicken Salad.
The new products have met with success, and Wendy's has gained share in large hamburgers and large chicken sandwiches. But some price-conscious customers have taken their business elsewhere. Management recently launched a value-based menu, called "Right Price Right Size," and will ramp up marketing of it this year. Management couldn't be reached for comment.
Remodeling Wendy's aging stores is another part of its strategy. While the company has updated some stores over the years, the latest efforts involve an all-encompassing overhaul aimed at creating a cutting-edge design that rivals competitors'. The remodels include such features as lounge seating, fireplaces, flat-screen TVs, Wi-Fi, and digital menu boards.
Wendy's has launched 66 new restaurants, of which 48 have been remodels, and they have met with a positive response from customers. Sales in the newer-looking stores are up 25% since remodeling. The company plans to remodel 200 stores this year, and open 120 new units. In 2015 it is targeting 1,300 new and remodeled outposts.
The changes are showing up in profitability and sales. In the December quarter, company-run restaurants enjoyed profit margins of 15.9%, compared with 15% a year ago, and that's despite rising costs for beef and chicken. This year management expects even better performance, with same-store sales rising 2% to 3%.
Wendy's has a solid balance sheet, giving it ample flexibility to execute its strategy. Cash stands at $454 million to debt of $1.46 billion, making net debt 29% of total capitalization. The company also generates free cash flow, with $15 million expected in 2013.
Through his firm, Trian Fund Management, Peltz and associates control 27% of Wendy's stock. Peltz, who has been a director of the company since 1993, currently serves as chairman, and has long made his view known that Wendy's is worth far more than its stock-market value.
Given his involvement, a sale of the business is a strong possibility. One logical buyer: Yum! Brands, which doesn't own a burger business.

Product Description:
Joan Baez's first album was released in 1960 and it was a revelation. Here was an angelic-looking, dark-haired 19-year-old singing ancient songs, most of them drawn from the Child Ballads, a set of 305 numbered ballads from England and Scotland (and several American variants) collected by Francis James Child in the late 19th century, with a soprano voice so pure and mesmerizing that it appeared as timeless as a voice in an elegant and graceful dream. She made ancient love and murder ballads seem like cool and serious business, and without Baez as a virginal-looking poster girl, the commercial end of the urban folk revival of the early '60s might never have gotten off the ground. This release includes a remastered version of that first album and adds in Folksingers 'Round Harvard Square, Baez's first actual record, which features her singing solo on six songs, as part of a duo with Bill Wood on four songs, and as part of a trio with Wood and Ted Alevizos on another song. The bonus set originally appeared on LP in 1959 from the little Veritas Records label and was intended as an introduction to the Cambridge, Massachusetts folk scene that was just beginning to flourish at the time. Paired like this, one realizes that Baez just didn't suddenly appear from the heavens after all when her official album came out a year later, but that her approach and stage presence had been artfully formed and nurtured in the Cambridge folk clubs. ~ Steve Leggett
